Latino scholarship up for grabs


Incoming college students seem to always have trouble finding ways to pay for their college education. Whether it's through grants, loans or small scholarships, Latinos need to take the extra mile to pay for school. Well thanks to some social media posts, I found this wonderful opportunity for college bound and current (at least part time) Latino college students in Pennsylvania. All that is required is a two page essay

The Estamos Unidos de Pennsylvania (EUP) Scholarship to Latino/Hispanic students who qualify has been established to motivate and support talented Latino/Hispanic students, who are American citizens or permanent legal non-citizens that reside in the state of PA. Students who aspire or are working to achieve a technical, vocational school, or college education should definitely apply. I'm glad there are organizations like EUP to support educated Latinos.

Thanks Eric for this story. - I follow Being Latino through my FB page. Am a native Puerto Rican transplanted to Northeastern Ohio. My question is this - I am beginning PhD course work in Counseling and wondered what organizations you or others would recommend for grad, or post grad Latino scholarships? Any tips - groups would be appreciated.
